We search for invisible decays of the Upsilon(1S) meson using a sample of 91.4x10(6) Upsilon(3S) mesons collected at the BABAR/PEP-II B factory. We select events containing the decay Upsilon(3S)->pi(+)pi(-)Upsilon(1S) and search for evidence of an undetectable Upsilon(1S) decay recoiling against the dipion system. We set an upper limit on the branching fraction B(Upsilon(1S)-> invisible)< 3.0x10(-4) at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract

We search for invisible decays of the Upsilon(1S) meson using a sample of 91.4x10(6) Upsilon(3S) mesons collected at the BABAR/PEP-II B factory. We select events containing the decay Upsilon(3S)->pi(+)pi(-)Upsilon(1S) and search for evidence of an undetectable Upsilon(1S) decay recoiling against the dipion system. We set an upper limit on the branching fraction B(Upsilon(1S)-> invisible)< 3.0x10(-4) at the 90% confidence level.

We search for invisible decays of the Upsilon(1S) meson using a sample of 91.4x10(6) Upsilon(3S) mesons collected at the BABAR/PEP-II B factory. We select events containing the decay Upsilon(3S)-&gt;pi(+)pi(-)Upsilon(1S) and search for evidence of an undetectable Upsilon(1S) decay recoiling against the dipion system. We set an upper limit on the branching fraction B(Upsilon(1S)-&gt; invisible)&lt; 3.0x10(-4) at the 90% confidence level.
